I am fully German, half from Upper Bavaria, half from the Eifel Region in Rhineland-Palatinate. For perspective my Top 5 Ethnicity estimates: 1. West_German (6.816) 2. Flemish (7.076) 3. French (7.525) 4. South_Dutch (8.108) 5. Welsh (9.735) Early Bronze Age: 3. Bronze Age Jinonice Prague...

What about adding the Barclay clan to the noble families section ? Most participiants with the actual Barclay surname tested I-L160, their TMRCA/Haplogroup fits the clan history (norman ancestry). The R1b section is mostly compromised of people with other surnames, plus they don't really match...

Unfortunately I don't have the STRs. I just saw I-M223 predicted (the stoessel link): FTDNAs predictions are normally accurate. It would also match Verhuells dutch ancestry pretty good.

Seems like we got our first king ! Descendants of Napoleon III. tested for I-M170 and are presumably I-M223. Apparently a NPE occured in the Bonaparte line. The best candidate is http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carel_Hendrik_Verhuell...

The most basal forms of M26 are found in Germany (2nd most basal in France/British Isles) as far as I know. Most spanish samples fall under downstream clades and I really doubt that M26 had a spanish origin. Imo M26 originated in Germany and expanded from France. That's what SNPs say and I...

You are right in a way, but especially for Portugal it's helpful in my opinion. I'd suggest using the weighted average for Spain: Andalusia: (n=805) : 1,92% Castile: (n=373) : 2,15% Basque Co.: (n=714) : 3,50 %

I disagree a bit with your percentages on the iberian peninsula. Iberian Roots with a sample size of more than 2400 has listed the following: Navarre (Spain): 9.09% Aragon (Spain): 5.33% Catalonia (Spain): 2.05% Basque Country (Spain): 1.84% Andalucia (Spain): 0.72% Galicia (Spain): 0.68%...

Yes, i am. M26+ L160+ PF4088+ and negative for everything downstream known yet.

Totally agree, but with a rare subgroup you also won't find a lot. That's what I get, not very informative: Haplogroup Origins: 12 Marker GENETIC DISTANCE - 1 Haplogroup Country Comment Count I2a Germany - 1 Ancestral Origins: 12 Marker GENETIC...

You're probably right, there is like 4-5% I-M26 in Normandy but the Jeffords sample doesn't match them very closely. Still weird that he uses 2 different ancestors. About the cluster i'm skeptical, the genetic distance between the individuals seems to high to link it with celts. I think it's...

->Giffard (can't post links excuse me, but there's a site on wikipedia) Seems like all these people have a common ancestor called Robert Gifford/Giffard who was born in 1096. One descendant has tested I-PF4088 (L160+ M26+), he's in the I2a Project. Still, very interesting to see M26...

Proof ? Source ? Sense ? Logic ? Study ? Scientific Facts ?

I think you got it wrong, the reason why I people were a small population when the IE arrived was their hunter gatherer origin. Most of their clades adopted farming, but their initial population was relatively small and therefore it is logical that they were still a small population compared to...

There isn't any evidence for a war or conquest. There are far more logical reasons why R1b is the dominant lineage in some parts of europe. The indigenous population of europe was fairly small like all hunter-gatherer civilizations . The R1b people who came from plain steppes settled mostly in...
